I *think* I know, but have never seen it yet in real life...I have some fabric here that is a knit (Polyester?) and has an almost velour side to it...very soft, but not like fleece....I'm thinking it's not Minkee, but I'm just not sure!

I just made myself a quilt with it (camera is broken.. sorry) I just used it for the backing. No idea how it washes though. Guess I will find out eventually. I love how it feels though. I put it on the quilt on my avatar picture.

Minkee is alittle slice of heaven all rolled into one piece of fabric,,,LOVE IT, It is expensive though, I ordered mine thru Fabric.com and it was $10. a yard, that was the cheapest i have seen it.(Unless you count their clearance section)

It is expensive, but a very cuddly backing fabric - I have not tried quilting it myself, I sent the quilts off to my friend to quilt on her long arm - I think it's too slippery to quilt on a sewing machine. But I love the results. Great for little kids or baby quilts.
